[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 499473, member: 250"] One of the possibilities I mentioned! :Salute A neon screwdriver is not device that can prove circuit continuity.. you need to invest in a continuity tester to verify ALL of your wires make a complete circuit from supply to load then back to supply.. If a conductor has 'slipped' out of a termination then I would guess that you are probably not securing your terminations correctly.. i.e. ensure all connections are electrically sound... as loose joints can cause overheating and problems later.. I also hope none of your earth wires have popped out somewhere as well.. As I am guessing you haven't actually proved earth continuity on your alteration.. Which is a rather essential safety test!.
